We were looking for a quiet, low key place and this was mostly that. However, the beach was not available due to a seaweed problem, but other resorts were able to keep their beach open if not in ideal condition. On several occasions the language barrier led to incorrect orders. Sometimes we were brought a zero dollar check to sign, and other times we were not which led to confusion. Finally the food was OK but was not great, even at the highest end places.

This property is not a 5-star with an above 9 rate- I have been at a lower rate, and my experience was way better! Dont fool with the review even Expedia didnt refund us we reached out! One of the worst things is the cleanliness, it's even worse than 4 starts; we changed our room and the bathroom was smelly for days, can you believe it?! The food was not good- I was Hungary during the day for 2 first days and after that I could just find some ham edible which was not in my diet, the reservation and occupancy were bad; we just abled once to entered the steakhouse with so many tires, and they made the resort full more than its capacity; it is cheap for such a rating and the amount you pay. We have been to similar resorts, which are more affordable and way better! If you want to enjoy and chill definitely you cant we were always worry about something, pool area beds was always full or bad food or reservation or bedroom dirts so many things!! I will just attach some photos that i got for Expedia to convince them we need a refund to go to another resort and they didnt accept, if you see in the toilet there is an stain, we tried to clean it with alcohol, didnt work, then the ground was some leaking that had an awful smell, the room was not clean it was dusty and drawers was not usable there were food residue. I tried to not focus on it to completely ruin my experience otherwise i would took a lot more photos to attach.
